Topic: how much fruit in the beer? (Read 456 times)

I brewed 6.5 gallons of California Common (Anchor Steam clone) last weekend and for my inlaws anniversary I would like to add cranberries to recreate a Cranberry Steam Beer my mother-in-law had in college and has told me about ever since I met my wife.

I've heard the same 1-2 lbs ROT numerous times in researching for a Cranberry Lambic. I am going to start on the low side, but I have a much longer time and easier product to tweak with.

Keep in mind you can always add more, but can't take it away easily. I can blend too, so wasn't too concerned with it being too fruity. I would suggest using the fruit base (or just frozen berries) and tweaking with the extract.
